It was Julia Child who, following James Beard’s death in 1985, first proposed starting a foundation and saving his home as a center for the American culinary community. "Since Santa Barbara considers Julia Child one of its own,” explains Event Co-Producers Laurie Kirby and Stuart MacNaught, "it seemed appropriate for the Santa Barbara dinner to honor the collaborative relationship of James Beard and Julia Child." In honor of Ms. Child’s penchant for French cooking, the evening's chefs include celebrated Parisian Chef Gilles Epié and LA-based French Chef Christophe Émé. Another of the evening’s accomplished chefs, Cat Cora, credits Child as having been her mentor. Manhattan Beach Chef David LeFevre, Esquire Magazine’s 2015 Chef of the Year Ray Garcia, and The Fess Parker Doubletree Resort Executive Chef Kirk DeLong round out the current roster of chefs. This chic Santa Barbara dinner begins at 7 p.m. with a cocktail reception followed by a one-night-only, multi-course dinner (with premium wine pairings), and ending with a decadent dessert course and a Q&A session with the evening's chefs.

  • Tribute to Three Giants Figures of the Sixties' Pop
    TRIBUTE TO THREE GIANTS FIGURES OF THE SIXTIES’ POP MUSIC IN THE 50th ANNIVERSAIRE OF THEIR DEATH. ALAN WILSON, JIMI HENDRIX AND JANIS JOPLIN: ASTROLOGICAL REVIEW OF THREE 27’ CLUB MEMBERS. We were at the end of the “sixties”, a remarkable decade of 20th century for popular music, revolutionary movements, technological achievements and radical changes in human relationships. It was also the time of “hippie liberation”, the spread of drugs through young people. Everything was fine when, just in the span of thirty days, three outstanding members of musical background suddenly died. 1970, September the 3th: Alan Wilson, “Canned Heat” guitar, harmonica and vocal, commit suicide at home of another member group, Bob Hite, in Topanga Canyon, California. An overdose was the cause of his death. He was 27 years old. 1970, September the 18th: Jimi Hendrix, one of the bests guitarrist of all times, share his last night with Monica Dannemann in Samarkand Hotel, London. When she woke up Jimi was inconscious, yet breathe. He was moved at St. Mary Abbot Hospital, but he was not alive. The cause of his death: asphyxia per vomit. His partner declared that Jimi had had seven tablets of Vesparax, a barbituric, say, 18 times the recommended dose. He was 27 years old. 1970, October the 4th: Janis Joplin, a singer and contraculture icon of the sixties was found dead in her hotel room, at Los Angeles, just when she was going to record the vocal part of Buried Alive in the Blues next morning. A portent, maybe a synchronicity. The official cause of her death was an heroine overdose, probably combined with alcohol effects.

  • CNHI Woodstock 20190814
    A half-century later, the mother of all music festivals still resonates ifty years after the fact, it still resonates with us. Tucked up in the Catskill Mountains, the Woodstock Music & Art Fair — promoted as “An Aquarian Exposition, Three Days of Peace and Music,” but known to one and all as simply Woodstock — took place in 1969 over three-plus days. From Friday, Aug. 15, through the morning of Monday, Aug. 18, dairy farmer Max Yasgur’s 600- acre parcel of land in Bethel, New York — forever immortalized in Joni Mitchell’s “Woodstock” (ironically, she wasn’t at the event itself) — became the epicenter of the music and cultural universe, a haven for 400,000-plus hippies, bohemians, music lovers and mem- bers of the counterculture. It began when folkie Richie Havens began strumming his gui- tar, kicking off the festival with Paul Gerry/Bethel Woods Collection “From the Prison.” Thirty-two more acts, about 66 hours and several rainstorms later, it ended when guitar god Jimi Hendrix capped off a stellar set with his rendition of “Hey Joe.” Thousands of cars were left stranded for miles and miles en route to the venue as concertgo- ers walked to their destination. Tickets for the festival were $18, but many attendees got in for free when the crowd more than tripled what organizers had anticipated. Dallas Taylor, the drummer for supergroup Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young (playing just its second-ever show), asked the helicopter pilot James Sarles/Bethel Woods Collection James Sarles/Bethel Woods Collection flying him to the event what body of More than 400,000 people descended on a dairy farm in Bethel, N.Y., for the concert held 50 years ago.

  • The Last Bedraggled Fan Sloshed out of Max Yasgur's Muddy Pasture More Than 25 Years Ago. That's When the Debate Began About Woodstock's Historical Significance
    The last bedraggled fan sloshed out of Max Yasgur's muddy pasture more than 25 years ago. That's when the debate began about Woodstock's historical significance. True believers still call Woodstock the capstone of an era devoted to human advancement. Cynics say it was a fitting, ridiculous end to an era of naivete. Then there are those who say it was just a hell of a party. The Woodstock Music and Art Fair in 1969 drew more than 450,000 people to a pasture in Sullivan County. For four days, the site became a countercultural mini-nation in which minds were open, drugs were all but legal and love was "free". The music began Friday afternoon at 5:07pm August 15 and continued until mid-morning Monday August 18. The festival closed the New York State Thruway and created one of the nation's worst traffic jams. It also inspired a slew of local and state laws to ensure that nothing like it would ever happen again. Woodstock, like only a handful of historical events, has become part of the cultural lexicon. As Watergate is the codeword for a national crisis of confidence and Waterloo stands for ignominious defeat, Woodstock has become an instant adjective denoting youthful hedonism and 60's excess. "What we had here was a once-in-a-lifetime occurrence," said Bethel town historian Bert Feldman. "Dickens said it first: 'It was the best of times. It was the worst of times'. It's an amalgam that will never be reproduced again." Gathered that weekend in 1969 were liars and lovers, prophets and profiteers.

  • 1. Glamticipations Rock Faces the 1970S
    1. glamticipations Rock Faces the 1970s The pause of 1970 was a strange moment. It was marked by the absence of creative movement in rock’s central core. It was equally due to the dangerous political climate that shattered the youth movement’s unity and thus drove rock away from its natural base. The breakup of bands, the deaths, the personal crises, the restless movement of performers, the record companies’ insistent attempts to pull out solo acts from ensemble bands so that they could be turned into superstars, all these led to a reconsideration of what constituted the stable unit for rock. —Philip Ennis (360) Sociologist Philip Ennis describes the year 1970 as a “pause point” in the development of rock music, which had enjoyed a decade of steady ascendance up to that time (344). But the social, political, and cultural disappointments of 1969 and 1970, including the Rolling Stones’ disastrous concert at Altamont; the shootings of student protesters at Kent State University; the dissolution of the Beatles as a group; the deaths of Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, and Brian Jones of the Rolling Stones; the upheaval surrounding the 1968 Democratic National Convention and the resulting trial of the Chicago Seven all marked the point at which rock music could no longer serve as the soundtrack of the Vietnam era hippie counter- culture. After 1970, rock would have to proceed on different eco- nomic, political, social, and cultural bases. Ennis examines these issues in the American context, but the same disappointment and disaffection with the counterculture was spreading in the United Kingdom.
